If Gawn is to play forward we need a game plan that involves him handing off every time to a player coming past for every shot between 1m out to 50m out. The invention of the dual player shot for goal strategy.

Always felt Brodie was too intellectual for Pies … doesn’t fit.

There is only one logical reason for Smith training with forwards. Only a couple of cm shorter than van Rooyan so in he comes this week or next. Out goes … um…. Someone. Possibly Harmes for Sparrow but that mucks up the all new ‘Gus in the Middle’ show which is rating well. The FD doesn’t do mass changes so that would be about it. Looking forward to smashing the Pies in the first final.

Reading between Goody’s lines: BBB in Weid out only change

Port =Freo in my brain at that moment in time!

I reckon our best outcomes are either finish 2nd and face Brisbane or Port at home and if not, then fourth to play Geelong at the G.

Hope this positivity is based on reality! Not been too sure about the “wanting more midfield” anyway given his concussion history. Half back / wing seems a better fit.

I really just cannot see any way Freo can get the trade to work. Can one of these media pundits put up a plausible scenario. I refuse to believe Luke would want to see the Dees screwed over.

I have resisted but starting to feel more and more that Luke may move. One thing that seems probable is that nothing will be decided or announced until after the season finishes. (Headline tomorrow - “Jackson signs on for two more”)

If he goes, what of Rivers? I felt there was a strategy of drafting a raft of WA guys together to help with the “being comfortable in a foreign land” factor. Is Jackson the first in a row of dominoes to fall or an anomaly in the drafting plan?
